I am apparently terrible at freaky factory. I barely beat Abigail, and that was after a few attempts. I'm even worse at Ugga Smash. I hope TNT pulls another switcharoo tomorrow. :(

FINALLY.

858, this game sucks. I swear Daily Dare is making me hate the game room. The only game I'm looking forward to for the rest of the month is Igloo Garage Sale. :/ The rest I've never played before, and will probably hate too, lol.

Yeah, they did. I believe it was the Bruno's Backwoods Breakaway prizes that they got switched with. TNT even put a note in the editorial stating that there was a miscommunication about the prizes on their side.

Wow, I thought Freaky Factory would be another game that everyone would say that it was tedious and boring...

I personally love it.

And of course, I've been waiting all month for it, so of course there's no cute plushie or anything to reward me for my patience...

There's a clock behind where the little... blob things move past. I never noticed it until today.

Uhm, waste overflow?! I am so stupid!! What am I missing in this game? How do I avoid overflow? I don't get any of this. And what Grundo? I can't even get past level 2! It simply goes too fast for me. :cry:

I am also not looking forward to Ugga Smash (my best hint is to just hit all the keys to make you go around in a circle and let them smash you lol). And Volcano Run for the last day? Yeah, sure, why not make the last day the hardest game EVER! :roll:

EDIT: Okay I finally noticed the Grundo. Lot of good it does me as I try to keep track of so many other things going on on my screen. :( Why couldn't Space Fungus be a AAA game? At least I like that Grundo. Hehe.

I don't understand how I can play really crappy 5 times, beat my own High Score with a whopping 133, yet sometimes I get zero points. I have trouble even reaching level 2. What gets points? Can the Grundo reduce my score? What should I be focusing on most in this game? I feel so lame. (And yes I have read the hints in this thread up until now. Apparently I am that insufficient. Can I focus on doing one thing and hope to get 200?)

Geez and I thought MAGAX would be my downfall. This was unexpected. :\

You sound just like me! I kept on getting like..80 points til I figured out that a) there is a little sign to the side telling you what color you're aiming for. I felt so dumb for not getting this sooner. b) the best way to get points in a level is to fill up the other two vats that aren't being requested, then fill up the third because then hopefully on the next request a bunch of them will poop out really fast. When this happens you pay attention to the grundo so you get a bonus for having so many in a row. I think. That is how I am choosing to believe the game is scored. Oh, and click the soap thingy, but nothing else because everything else seems to be bad. And don't click the blobs with weird faces, because they suck too.

Yeah. I got a score of 448, which I am pretty dang proud of considering my previous score of 7.

I guess the main focus could just be the blobs. There are still many aspects of them though. You have to time it so that the right color drops into the right vat. And you have to make sure it isn't one of the fake blobs. And not putting more blobs in while that color's vat is full.

If you wanted to, try going through a few games only focusing on that, then you might be able to add the other elements of the game(strategy/grundo/etc.), and hopefully get good bonuses from consecutive toys.

What's worse is that I DID notice the icon on the side telling me what color I am supposed to make and yet still have no aim, plus I am frantic when I hear time is involved (and who would need to notice a clock unless they had a hard as time as I do at the game; I'd rather just try to get better). :oops: Then WHEN do I need to pay attention to the Grundo? Geez, alrealy I have a clock, three colors moving at different speeds, and a Grundo stealing my points? to keep track of. I must be so unevolved. :P

I noticed the "angry" blobs do me no good. Other than that, I have no idea what I am doing ... since ... everything just goes so darn fast! Geez! I will remember soap is best, and to forget the other weird blobs, thanks.

As for B, I read this earlier in the thread and although counter-logic to me I tried it. Rather I tried to mostly ignore what color had to be made and just fill up buckets. (Which is, again, ironic that the point of making a certain color should be obtained by making the others first, but so be it.) It just seems my weak points are timing and aim here. Intricately tied. I am amazed I can even play Space Fungus at all. It must be hard wired to my brain. But hard to wire Freaky Factory! Too random and chaotic to me.

EDIT: okamotosan18, you seem to pwn AAA. "And not putting more blobs in while that color's vat is full." So here comes the stupid question: How do I balance this? If I try to develop my aim ( again I can play well at UB and Petpet Cannonball, Space Fungus, but gravity perplexes me :P ) then how do I keep some vats from becoming too full? The "overflow" meter indicates just what I have spilled? Or not? Now I am more confused. :(

From what I can tell, there are two ways to add to your waste (the thermometer thing to the right of the screen):
1. dropping a blob and it just falls to the floor
2. dropping a blob into a vat that is already full. Also, dropping a big blob into a vat that only needed a little bit more to be full. I guess it "overflows."

If the game goes too fast for you, ignore the fast blobs. Focus on a medium-speed yellow one, and click it when its momentum will carry it into the yellow vat. Keep focusing on one blob at a time until you get the hang of it and can focus on two at a time. The angel looking one will act as any color and will fill the vat it lands on to full. If it misses, however, it adds a lot of waste to your waste-meter thing. Oh, and always, always, always!! click the soap looking one.

That was my strategy, hope it helps somebody. :)

A big :hug: to all PPTers that have come to my aid. I hath been doing such, too. (Just trying to not overflow, clicking on the easy slow- and medium- speed ones.) I figured the angel does something nice but is usually too fast for me. Is the soap okay if it doesn't fall in a vat? This again would seem contrary, but it is hard to tell unless one plays regularly and notices everything going on in the game at once, which I am bad at.

(I'll give it a few more tries and you might hear my triumph or spite soon.)

The soap, glowy green one, and icy one do not fall. They just wiggle and go away. :)

*Smacks head.* Yes I suppose I recall that ... subconsciously. Amazing all the things to notice in this game at once. I feel so ... overwhelmed. :P (Still, obviously they do my personal 'strategy' no good. I can click on those fine most of the time. So what the heck is my problem with blobs? Or rather, just earning points.)
